Hi, I learned today that GRUB 2 aims to be cross platform and already supports in some form PPC. Is there any interest in supporting the DEC Alpha (SRM) platform? According to the Current Status [*] page, BSD partition maps are already supported, so maybe the only thing to be done is the SRM-specific code? Alpha users currently use the long unmaintained aboot bootloader. Possibly code could be reused from aboot. Thanks, Matt Turner [*] http://grub.enbug.org/CurrentStatus
